Key players lost<\/strong> \u2013<\/p>\nSo much of this franchise\u2019s immediate and long-term future depends of James. One story will say that he can\u2019t wait to get to the bright lights of New York; another says that he\u2019s an Ohioan at heart and wouldn\u2019t tear the franchise apart by leaving. Only James and perhaps his entourage know for sure.<\/p>\n
For this year, anyway, it will be tons of fun watching Shaq carry his tons of body up and down the court as well as James overpowering just about everyone who has the gall to try to guard him. Mark James down for 30 points, 8 rebounds and at least one of two of those from-behind-the-pack blocks on breakaways.<\/p>\n
Shaq, meanwhile, will free things up for high-energy starting forward Anderson Varejao and make life warm and comfy for now-reserve center Zdrunas Ilgauskas.<\/p>\n
They\u2019ll have to keep an eye on Delonte West, though; reports indicate he is suffering from despression.<\/p>\n
Surprising stat:<\/strong> Not really surprising, but the Cavs had the best ATS record in the league last season \u2013\u2013 50-32.<\/p>\nStrengths:<\/strong> Duh…<\/p>\nWeaknesses:<\/strong> Outside shooting is a bit of a concern. On nights when James was off, there were problems. And Mo Williams needs to get over his playoff meltdown.<\/p>\nPlayoffs?<\/strong> Probably 2 seed in East; 1 seed if Celtics age quickly.<\/p>\nWin total projection for 2009-10<\/strong> — 66<\/p>\nCLICK HERE TO JOIN SPORTSBOOK.COM – ONE OF OUR TOP RATED ONLINE SPORTSBOOKS – 50% SIGN UP BONUS FOR NBA BETTING ONLINE<\/h3>\n
